Bick Kidd and his globe-trotting siblings Beck, Storm and Tommy may have completed their first treasure hunt after their father was lost at sea, but their kidnapped mother is still in the hands of nasty pirates. Their search for a rescue plan takes them down the Nile river in Africa, where they'll have to navigate everything from Egyptian pyramids in the desert to wet-and-wild jungles - not to mention life-threatening encounters with wilderness diseases, angry hippos and some seriously bad guys - in order to find the treasure and save the day.

This is illustrated. I read a review where the reviewer called a novel/graphic novel halfbreed. I completely agree. There are a lot of illustrations, and they have dialog bubbles.
This story is “told” to us by Bick Kidd and also conveyed through illustrations “drawn” by his twin sister Beck. They are on a quest to find their lost parents. Their journey is full of hiccups and bumps.
Kids love this book (I did too, 32). The illustrations are amazing. The story is constantly twisting and very imaginative, but also has little educational facts thrown in. I like sneaky authors who trick kids into learning!
I definitely recommend this to children who like adventure, pirate, James Patterson books, etc. This would make a great addition to any personal school, private, or public library. I purchased a copy for both of my children for Xmas. I do natural regret the purchase at all.
